Which realm "group" is the most popular?

Community General Discussion

Ahoy.

So, today I learned that realms are actually parts of groups of realms - I noticed this when people from different realms were chatting on the General channel and asked them about it. However, when I checked online, it says my realm, Draenor, is not connected. Is the wow site not up to date or how is that?

And anyway, I was just curious, if realms are parts of groups, which group of realms is currently the most populated? I thought Draenor is the one with the highest population - but I assume realm groups would have even higher population?

When you see other players from other servers it is called PHASING and it happens when the area you are in has a low amount of players.
The other thing you mentioned is called CONNECTED REALMS which Draenor is not a part of. There are a bunch of dead servers Blizzard connected and those servers can join guilds cross realm and trade as if they are on the same server.
Just because you see other servers it does not mean you are connected, you still cannot trade with them or join guilds there.

You can check https://raider.io/realms/eu for a list of realms and which ones are grouped.

It also shows some indication of population, but those are based on raiding and m+ I think, so take that info with a grain of salt.

Aight, so it appears my Horde realm (Draenor) and Alliance realm (Silvermoon) are the most populated English speaking realms.

Thanks for the info y’all. :slight_smile:

PS. Never tried a RP realm - do people actually expect you to RP over there or is it just more chatty?

How do you insert giphs here? Do you need some level here on the forums?

Which is true for some realms, but not all.

You can see people from most EU realms in General Chat. If you want a litmus test for whether your realm is connected or not, browse your Trade Chat. If people from other realms pops up there - they are from connected realms which shares economy and guild facilities with your realm, thus you can join their guild and trade unrestricted with them.

Which is correct, Draenor being a heavily populated realm. Only us from smaller realms gets to be connected, like Doomhammer/Turalyon.

You need trust level 3 which you get from either no lifing the forum, posting and reading like a madman.
Or by having been in any recent wow betas.

Once you have it you’d just post the url of any gif, webm or image and that’s it.
